Hiya, if I’m replacing a rotor that seems to have delaminated, should I replace the pads and do the same on the other axle, or is it ok to just change the rotor on it’s own? Thanks in advance
Tip I didn’t hear in the video, the emergency break piston/screw piece that you drive back ( with the 4 slots – sorry for the awesome terminology), if you don’t have the driving tool, you can use needle nose pliers and push real hard. It does take long and if it just spins, push harder. 1.5 hrs I spun asking myself wtf.
So this morning I decided to try and change the rear brakes and rotors on my Hyundai Elantra…guess what I found when I searched YouTube for “Hyundai Elantra rear brakes and rotors”?? You F-ing Rule my friend! Thank you!
if yours has disc rear brakes than yes it is very similar. however if yours has drums than its not the same… thank you. if you have any questions feel free to ask. you can also visit my website toolsandtime. com and visit join the free forum im there more than here and can give you a quicker response
Is the set up the same for a 2002 Hyundai Elantra as it is in this video? We are going to do our breaks for the first time on my car. My husband does his breaks on his Honda. Thanks for the video!
in some cases you may and here is why… while your brakes ware down the travel increases in the calipers and or wheel cylinders what have you, therefore the fluid level in the master cylinder will lower… now if someone ads fluid to the reservoir in this time. what happens when you go to install the new brakes and you compress the calipers. the fluid that was added will now be on the floor overflowing from the reservoir, so in some cases you may need to remove some. not all
your welcome, glad i could help
Thanks for the video, was looking for the point about the piston return, helped much. Thanks for your time !

Thanks for the video! The Koreans seem to use 14 mm all around in the brakes. I’ve got a 2006 Korean made Chevrolet and on the right side of the rear brakes one bolt had a 12 mm head while on the other side and in the front all were 14 mm. Maybe someone assembled those brakes on a monday morning…Greetings from Finland!
thank you for the comment and considering me, i try to interact and show how i do it at the same time, thank you for the feed back, i was wondering if i should shut the trap and show more work. glad you liked it
let me know how you make out with the brake job, good luck
Great video I like how you talk to us like we are there. Laid back and joking. I have a Hyundai Elantra ’03 and I am doing the rear brakes tomorrow for the 1st time. If you were around me I would bring everything to you since you seem like a good trustworthy mechanic. Thanks for the video.
yes, i should have gave you guys a better shot on how to go about jacking the car and making it secure, this was one of those vids that i really didn’t have much time to record. but i shot it any how, hindsites 20/20 next time i will give a good shot of it for you guys. i do mention it. in the vid around 04:53
Jack Stands!
